Hurting, healing

Saying "How could he have...!" can be hurting.
Seeing 'how he could have' can be healing.

Connection

I yearn to connect with you -
my silence with yours,
not my noise with yours.

Goddess!

Poked, beaten,

Bruised.

Slashed, stabbed,

Bleeding.

Bewildered, wounded,

Unconscious.

Still, quiet,

Waking up.

Loving, holding,

Healing.

Goddess!
